Day 3 digs for #NWC48. The beaded scarf was handmade for me by my mother. 😃 Today you can find me at 12 at The Poetry Workshop and 7 at The Poetry Deathmatch. Come write and be judged (in a good way)!

At "Reading Other People's Poetry" on the first day of Norwescon with @docnock.bsky.social on the panel. #NWC48

A woman sitting at a table with a microphone looks askance at the photographer. She is wearing a purple Norwescon lanyard, a raven pendant and a brown shirt, and sitting behind a name plate that says Larina Warnock.

I don't know why I always think I'll get some writing done on work trips. "I'll be in a quiet hotel room!" turns into "I just sat in a meeting for 8 hours. I am not touching my computer!" on the first day. 😂 #writinglife

My mother said she wants me to finish my book. I told her I'm working on it again after reading a book that helped me identify how to fix it. She said it's not broken. I said she's supposed to say that. Now she has to wrestle with the question: Does she really want me to finish it? #writinglife

I've been trying with writing a little before work every day because by the time I get home, decision fatigue has taken over my brain. Yesterday I wrote a sentence. This morning, a paragraph. Small wins. #writinglife

Larina Warnock @docnock.bsky.social · 05/08/2025

Headed back to work today. I wish I could find the time of day where I could write a little during the work week. I got one sentence added to my novel this morning. I guess that counts as progress!

Larina Warnock @docnock.bsky.social · 04/08/2025

Practiced a healthy dose of novel-revision-avoidance today, but I did actually make about 1000 words of progress. Also submitted a couple poems, filled out some patient paperwork, and reorganized my Google Drive...What tasks help you avoid writing? #writinglife

I wrote this piece as part of a Clarion West Write-a-Thon a couple years ago. When I do Write-a-Thons of any kind, I write something using a name selected by people who sponsor me. This piece has a special, secret meaning, making it that much more fun to share. larinawrites.substack.com/p/page-10
